Tonight the third show of the ESL-TV QL Invitational sponsored by Razer will feature the Playday #2 matches. spart1e, xlo-fazz, PURRI (who now replaces link1n) and [M]strenx will be the contenders for a slot in the Finals and 100€.

The show will once again begin at 12:00 CDT and be hosted by 2GD and Joe. The Razer competitions will not be different this time, excepted for the mouse that you can win which is now a DeathAdder.

- Competition 1: Guess the First frag of the show
Yes, test your psychic quake ability and see if you can guess the first frag and how it happens! the closest person to the truth will be the winner.

Example answers:
contestant 1: strenx kills fazz with a machine gun!
contestant 2: strenx kills fazz with a machine gun at Red armor
contestant 3: strenx kills fazz with a machine gun at Red armor around the 2 minutes 10 second mark
contestant 4: strenx kills fazz with a fish! A dangerous new weapon thats never before seen in quake! but will surely be hotfixed in before the match proceeds...

Now, Had strenx killed fazz with a machine gun over at Red armour around the 2 minutes 10 second mark contestants 1,2 and 3 would all be correct, but the one who went into the most detail, making his guess more unlikely but more precised. will be the winner. So contestant number 3 wins! So if you want to break away from the crowd, give us as much info as you can! But of course your more than welcome to play it safe. Contestant number 4. wins nothing

- Competition 3: Predict all Matches correctly!
Yes, If you are winning the cbooky ladder or think you know your Progamers. Try and guess all the winners of each of the 3 matches correctly. If your lucky or smart enough to get all right, your be in with a chance to win one of Razers new gaming mice.

All entries must be entered in the comments section before the show starts at 12:00 CDT, 23 July 2009. The Playday #1 Winners were X brainer (small Goliathus pad), juM8o (medium Goliathus pad) and Po0dle (Razer Salmosa).

Maps will be chosen using the elimination system. The winner of a coin toss starts removing a map, loser removes, loser picks and winner picks. Last remaining map will be used as decider if needed. Match will start on loser's map pick.

well it's written only for germany ; but I can continue and it seems to work... but it demands an "IC-PIN" and a shit ton of banking details, too much for me to be arsed. why not use paypal or visa, seems much simpler to me
also I don't want a monthly automatic debit, just want one month (I know you can certainly cancel the stuff right after paying the first month, but the option should be available in the first place)

this site was a maze a few years back when I played some esl cups (and I believe it has always been), and it still is. they really have to learn ergonomy and fire their web designer once and for all

edit : it seemed to work, I can watch the big stream for the on demand videos
I have not much idea how much I've payed (something like 2-3€), neither how long the premium esl tv stuff will last (got 30 premium days converted to esl tv, does it means I've got one month of esl tv ? mystery, an dI'm tired of this crap ; at least it seems I'll be able to watch the big stream towmorrow, and the quality is very nice)

admittedly the premium payment area is a mess because of all the different countries, languages, payment systems and prices we support.

We don't offer some payment systems for 1 month plan because they're not economical for us (i.e. you pay 3 euro, we maybe get 1), though there is a gap with the missing telephone call payment in the first page you find but it is there on the second

The rest of the site design is pretty easy though... pick a country, pick a game..

do you really lose 2 eur out of 3 when using paypal?
paypal has some flat fee + a percentage which I don't see taking away 2 eur, but perhaps I'm missing something.
I would rather pay 1 eur extra for using paypal, if that's making it profitable for you, instead of doing what wata did, calling and converting shit.. :)

All well and good but Destructoid is currently arranging a Quake Live tournament in it's "Friday Night Fights" and they have a couple of computers as prizes... Unfortunately it's already progressed to the semis but hopefully they'll do another some time. :P

For some reason, whatever I do, I can only watch that damn commercial! After it, I only see a white play symbol on a black background, and nothing happens. When I press it, I just see that damn commercial again and the process repeats itself! Yesterday, ONE of the surely 20-30 times I tried, worked. So I watched 50 or so minutes yesterday. But today, I have tried at least 40 times now, and it just doesn't work. I've tried restarting my computer, I've tried other computers, I've tried different browsers. Nothing works!
